BOOZE, NOT MARIJUANA THE REAL GATEWAY DRUG

Self-proclaimed expert, Licia Corbella, makes a foolish assertion in her 
column, Why a former stoner doesn't want legal weed, (Aug. 27).

She claims marijuana is the gateway drug, the first drug a person uses, 
which leads to experimentation with other drugs.

Since most people use alcohol or tobacco as their first drugs, they must be 
the real gateway drugs!

I guess Corbella will fill her column with any nonsense, just to keep the 
paycheques coming.
